PPVII has been working closely with the National Service of Agricultural Health and Food Safety (SENASAG) in the participatory development of their technical regulation: “Sanitary Requirements for the Handling, Processing, Transportation and Commercialization of Fish and Its Products”.
The regulation will be used as a basis to develop a practical guide for fish processing companies, transporters, vendors and others who handle fish at the national level. Agreements have been reached with the five Municipalities in the PPVII core region to collectively create a user’s manual for municipal officials, producers and vendors. This will Improve the quality of fish being offered and consumed by Bolivian families.
